Took the sunset cruise at 3pm. It does get cold. Wrap yourself up. Saw several humpbacks, some flukes. No breaching. Sunset was nice. Snacks and beverages available for a fee. Top level seating costs additional $20.

Saw 9 different humpback whales, truly amazing. Boat was comfortable and the upper deck was definitely worth the extra fee.
